HC: What is a perfect date like for you?
MW: My perfect date would definitely be going to the beach while it’s hot, having a few beers, and listening to music.
HC: What’s been your favorite thing about America so far?
MW: My favorite thing about America so far would have to be the people; everyone is so nice and happy, especially the DKE boys. They have made my trip be amazing so far. Living close to the beach is also great. There are a lot of beautiful people at UNCW compared to other schools I’ve visited.
HC: Most awkward moment in America?
MW: In Australia the drivers seat in a car is on the opposite side to America. My first week in Wilmington I went to get into a taxi and I accidentally opened the drivers side door. The taxi driver thought I was trying to steal his car.
HC: Words to live by?
MW: “Travel while you’re young and able. Don’t worry about the money, just make it work. Experience is far more valuable than money will ever be.”
HC: Hobbies?
MW: Going to the gym, spending time at the beach, surfing, and hanging out with the boys.
HC: Male Celebrity Crush?
MW: Justin Bieber
HC: If you could marry one person, dead or alive, real or imaginary, who would it be?
MW: I would 100% marry Alexis Ren. She is the definition of perfection.
HC: If you were a Disney Princess, who would you be and why?
MW: Cinderella. When I was younger The Cinderella Story was my favorite movie.
